If you have ever argued out loud with the television about the correct way to sear a steak, Alton Brown has been talking directly to you for twenty years. The Good Eats mastermind turns his live show into something no cooking segment ever allowed on basic cable -- part food-science lecture, part stand-up set, part gleefully dangerous stage demonstration that the front rows should genuinely worry about. It is nerdy in the most joyful way, a night for the kind of person who owns a kitchen scale and has opinions about it. Pechanga hosts it on a November evening, a short drive for the whole valley's home cooks and food obsessives. Come with the friend who narrates their own cooking like a documentary. You will leave knowing something weird and useful, and probably a little afraid of what he does on that stage.
